The URL John forwarded gives survey of prices for regular certs and subdomain wildcard certs/super certs (ie *.mydomain.com all considered valid with respect to a single cert).
Does anyone have info on the cost of sub-ordinate CA cert with a name space constraint (limited to issue certs on domains which are sub-domains of a your choice... ie only valid to issue certs on sub-domains of foo.com). Maybe the answer is "a lot of money"... CA operators probably view users of this kind of tech to be corporations with big infrastructure to secure. It sounds like the http://www.thawte.com/spki/ offers this kind of service. However it sounds like its web based so they have really just bundled a more streamlined way to create lots of certs. (Thawte spki means "starter PKI" (not simple pki)).
